Got my chrome bonnet line in the mail today!

[VilleV]

It arrived today from UK and I only ordered it on tuesday! I think thats fast service!

I allready put it on too and it looks just marvelous! Think it really chances the whole appearance of the front of the car and fits in the retro theme spot on!

The Chrome line itself was easy to put on the car, but what was more difficult was getting it centered correctly. Since there was no template in the package I used masking tape and tried to measure it as well as possible, but Im still not quite sure if it is in the middle of the bonnet and in a straight line...

Will post some pics of the car once I have some time to take them.

¡congratulations! I had the same problem. I wasn't sure if the line was straight or not and I had to take some measures before sticking it in the bonnet. :mad:
It is true, it's incredible how can a simple line could change so much the appearance of the car.:icon_thumleft:

Thanks for your comments guys!
The 16"s would finnish the look nicely, I agree Wrecks! But I decided when I bought the car that I wanted it to be more on the comfortable side. My previous car had bigger alloys with low rubber and over time I got really tired of the hard ride and ever present road noice!

It softens remarkably much up during the first 5-6000km`s. My car ain`t nearly as bumpy with 16" this summer compared to when I got it in October:icon_thumleft: But on the other side it is even more comfy with the 15"`s now:)

Looks good! And I think it looks perfectly fine with the 15" on.

Looks fab! :icon_thumright:

Looks a bit different compared to yours Animo! Mine is more on the retro side as where you have now gone for a sportier look. Thanks again for the nice comments!

[Animo]

The thing is that I love retro, I love sporty and I love simple..... I just never know which to go for! lol

[VilleV]

Yup, I think you have to choose one way to go with the 500, either sporty or retro, and thats excactly what you have done with yours too!
